You are offered for bid: MDC Roundhouse CLIMAX Logging Locomotive & Skidder on Flatbed & Display Stand This is one froma fleet of Climax steam locomotives designed and constructed by a master modeler. This is an outstanding running locomotive with a NEW Climax body mounted on a NEW Bachmann Spectrum 44 Ton chassis. It has a expert paint job, brass stanchions and stainless steel handrails. The dome covers, cab roof and bumpers are wood. The stack, pilot and head lamp are cast resin. The engineer is my creation. All components are new. The donkey engine is a NEW Bachman Logging Skidder. It's mounted on a modified Atlas flatbed car. The display stand is hand made. The stack, lamp and pilot are pressure fitted (not clued) on the locomotive so you can easily remove them if you want to further decorate it. I suggest weathering would set it off. Just Google “climax” images to get some good ideas. These are now extremely rare. I have only a few of these to sell in the future. PLEASE READ The original MDC Climax chassis leaves a lot to be desired, and usually requires a lot of work to get them to run well. The problem is with the gear train design with a large bull gear in the center of the chassis that results in severe “kinks” in the drive train to the trucks on any curve. Also, the trucks are mounted on sideways slider/flop guides read more
